Description
Easy and great for vegetarian dinners and grilling (Affiliate Link) in the summer time, these Red Pepper Black Bean Burger Sliders are great for weeknight meals.
Ingredients
- 30 oz cans of Black Beans cooked
- 6 tsp Egg Whites
- 2 Tbsp Oregano dried
- 2 tsp Basil dried
- 1 small onion small chopped
- 1 tsp of Granulated Garlic
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup Roasted Red Peppers chopped
- Optional: 4 Muenster cheese slices
- Optional: Olive Oil (Affiliate Link) Mayo and Sriracha sauce for topping
Instructions
- To make the burgers, mash black beans in a bowl using a potato masher. Cut up the red peppers into small pieces. Then, mix the rest of the ingredients.
- Using a large ice cream scoop, scoop out a heaping scoop of the mix. Then, form into a small burger. You can make ten slider burgers with this mix.
- Preheat grill. Then, spray each patty with a non-stick spray (Affiliate Link) and place the burgers spray side down on the grill.
- Cook for 5 minutes on the grill. Then turn over for another 5 minutes.
- OPTIONAL: Meanwhile, cut cheese slices into four small squares. Make 14 small squares. I used Muenster cheese slices.
- Then, add the cheese and take off the grill and start assembling the sliders.
- OPTIONAL: I mixed Olive Oil (Affiliate Link) Mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce for the toppings. I used baby spinach as the lettuce. Place the burgers on top or on a roll. Then, add the sauce to the top and enjoy.
- For the freezing method:
- I added them to wax paper and folded them up for freezing or grilling (Affiliate Link) later. Place the wax paper down, then add two burgers; then I added more wax paper and added two more burgers. I then covered the entire stack with wax paper. Then I placed them in a gallon bag and froze. They freeze very well.
- I pulled them out of the freezer and let them thaw for a few hours.
- Then, preheated the grill and added the oil to the burgers, and cooked for 5 minutes on both sides; add the cheese to melt. Then add to burger roll with toppings.
Notes
If you decide to make this gluten-free, be sure to adjust the gluten-free quantity. It will take a lot less than you may think than regular bread crumbs.
If you use egg substitute, mix it really well and follow the ratio listed on the back of the container.
